True Story of some gamblers i have experienced :

1) I have one friend who is living near by my home. He is studying Bachlor in Pharmacy. He is a totally addicted Gambler. Whenever he got some 2000INR to 5000INR cash in his pocket, Instead of using that money in some good things like shopping, or purchasing useful items for household use, He always went to Casino to gambler them on slot machines. Last Time , he got some 6000INR cash. and he ask me to come with him to go on casino. Thanks God, That time i didn;t have a single rupee in my pocket. We both went to casino and he started playing . First he told me that he will only wager with 100INR, If it will be lose , then we will stop it , If we won some cash we will spend on a restaurant.

After some 5-10 minutes , he won some 250INR extra profit for wagering 100INR. I asked him to stop , but he ignores , bcoz he had some 6000INR in his pocket. he both stay their for only one hour. I am just sitting on the chair and he is busy in gambling. After 1 hour , i have noticed his faced , he looses his all 6000INR cash. My friend got fully depressed.

That 6000INR cash is for paying his college fees. But because of too much greedyness , he loose his all cash Instead of paying college fees.

Note : This is the effect of gambling , when we lose our money.

Thanks Mate. 

This is the first time, when someone got agree with my suggestions. I am really feeling happy.  As everyone knows it very well, There is nothing free in this world. Then also Peoples got too much greedy and because of their greed , they loose out their all the money while gambling.

I simply put it in my Coinbase vault.. 

lmao nice strategy

I have been trying to quit gambling, and the only way I have learnt doing it is the hard way. I got around 5 losses in a row at 97%,  and thats when I realized, if you don't stop while you are ahead, you will eventually have a bad day and lose most of your winning and even more.

You're right , "free" money  doesn't exist. If you want earn , you've to invest your time and do something ( and with the gamble it is not simple).

The Best way to Stop Gambling is ==>> Just Stop thinking to earn a Huge Amount of Money in less time. This type of thinking works to let the person gamble .

If you think you can invest some amount of btc's and will make more bitcoins by gambling . Then you are 100% wrong. While Playing , you will loose you all bitcoin funds slowly slowly. At last , not a single satoshi will remains in ur BTC wallet and it will be totally NIL.

Its my Own Experience. So Guys, If you earn these bitcoins by doing hard work , Then why you are wasting your hardly earned money by using them in gambling. Just keep them with you and spend then in some useful stuffs or invest them in your own project which can get you Monthly Steady Income without any issue.


Its not a good deal . You earn money by doing hard work and loose them in gambling.

Nope. You will lock up your own address. The address you sent other than the one to which you sent 1 satoshi, will receive the balance. You will not be able to use the funds, till it is confirmed.

Yes you can , with the online wallet (blockchain.info) you can send TX with zero fee. Can I ask you what wallet do you use ?

me too 

You are actually going to do it?  You will need a different BTC wallet. Which one are you currently using?

So no one wants to volunteer to have their funds removed from Eden? Oh man! 

by the way, how can I send coins with no fee?

My wallet don't let me do it

lol, can I troll other people's addresses that way? Send 1 satoshi transaction, and their address are locked for few days?

Seems more interesting application than a (failed) attempt to spot gambling.

Well the fee is pretty cheap for something like dice, 1% on average.  I should imagine exact reasons for addction are very unique from person to person.

Yes, but sometimes the fee for that is a lot. You could do it the cheaper way as well. But thats not really the whole reason for the addiction behind gambling. Also came across this interesting article, posted by someone on the forum here on another thread: http://www.scientificamerican.com/article/how-the-brain-gets-addicted-to-gambling/

Just have to try and be rational (which is hard) and realize that the short terms wins are actually a kind of delusion.  If you can accept you are paying a fee with all bets to be entertained rather then playing a gambling game to beat it and make money then it can be fun.

the addiction is easy money

Play money might be an option to get over with that addiction, but I think its the money which is what the addiction is, and not just playing.

I made this post here on my thoughts about gambling addiction:
